Media Irrefutable stats that show the new garbage gloves have reduced the knockout rates SIGNIFICANTLY

[ExitLUPin]

Been 5 months now. Almost half year sample.

MKOHA. Make KOs Happen Again. You GOOFS and GOOBERS at UFC need to fix this IMMEDIATELY. I have informed my lawyers so suit up.

Can you read?

They listed the KO rates in 2021, 2022, 2023. They all hovered in 30-33% range.

With the new gloves it's in low to mid 20% KO rate. A double digit decline!

There's been more & more WMMA bouts on each card. Them's the culprits I tells ya!!

I've been making good money gambling on fights to go the distance since the new pillow gloves came into use.

Pillow gloves bless.

I get that stats are what they are but has anyone explained what specifically about the new gloves might result in such a decline? Even a theory or nah?

 

[Copper Burner]

There's a difference for sure. I remember Dustin Poirer wearing them in a fight and thinking his punches were landing differently. The energy seemed to be abosrbed by the glove and less effective in a strange way. Bizarre.

We saw Pereira unload barrages of heavy punches and Khalil ate them rather easily up until the end.

The championship gloves look like they where dipped in mustard not gold!
That sent ripples down the line and fighters lost faith because of it!

Well that seals the deal then. Fuck this mustard bullshit / no more questions from me

As long as the stats included him as well, yeah sure

I think they are just lighter and less padded. People aren't throwing as hard.

Listen i never claimed to know how to do anything ok...

(I fucked up)


Also..

The years not done yet... Its been 5 months and its already at 20%...that means theres 7 months to get the next 10% ...

Totally doable...

Nice! A repost thread that's actually interesting.

Well fuck you too!
But if the eye poke rate is less some of the KO's will go too since more then a couple come after a dirty eye poke.
I guess someone should buy the new glove?

The point is you have to include Fighters Analysis -- not aggregate analysis, to better understand the gloves.

Add to that -- matchups, styles, refs, sample size, timeframe, and on and on, on and on, and on and on and on and on (Heaven and Hell ).
